The Effects OF mental { Exhaustion

Many diseases, especially those Of the nervous
system, are the products Of daily renewed mental
exhaustion. Business avocations often involve an
amount Of mental wear and tear very prejudicial
to physical health, and the professions, if sardu-
ously pursued, are no less destructive to brain
and nerve tissue 1t is one of the most important
attributes Of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, that It
compensates for this undue loss Of tissue, and
thatlit imparts new energy to the brain and
nerves The rapidity with which it renews weak
ened mental energy and physical vitality is re-
markable, and shows that its invigoratng proper
ties are of the highest order. Besides increasing
vital stamina, and counteracting the effects OF

dyspepsia and constipation, kidney and uterine
weakness and other complaints Physicians also

THE WRECKED CARS.
The Theory Of the Virginia Midland
Accident Near Chatham.

Especial telegram TO the Dispatch
DANvILLE, Va, February 2.-The
wrecked cars on the Virginia Midland
road took fire this morning from lime,
and "A special car was sent here for Il
fire-engine TO protect the trestle. The
engine was not needed, however, and
was returned. The cars were allowed
to burn so as to clear the way for the
new trestle, which will be ready by
Monday. Some freight was saved, but
much of it persisted in the flames. The
loss is variously estimated at from
twenty to fifty thousand dollars.
The body Of young Martin was found
under the second car from the top.
There is doubt as to whether the trestle
was broken before the train got on it.
II is believed the truck of one of the
cars jumped the track and threw the
other cars of. The engineer has dis
tinct recollection of his engine going
down behind, and a brakeman on the
last car saw every car as it left the track
and plunged into the abyss below. He
jumped Just before his car went over
The engine is not badly damaged, but
the cars were crushed.

Worse than that, Sir John Mcdonald
had advanced the defunct Government
over $500, 600 ont of the Dominion
Treasury, which was charged against
the province, all of which went into
the general corruption fund. In addi-
ton TO this the province has been run
heavily into debt, and large amounts

SHABBY PmILANTIiROPIST.
Rich and Benevolent Citizen OF
Manchester who Lived Like
Miser.

Humphrey Nichols, parish clerk Of
Manchester in the old days when ec-
clesiastical dues were claimed for du-
ties done for the whole parish, was rs
munifcent as he was mean. Perhaps
it WIS the way he originally got his
money, in the shape of fees, that first
set him on this habit of saving, but GER
tain it is that in middle age he settled
down into penuriOus ways Of which
people nowadays have no concep-
lion; and vet he became lOpg be
fore his death, at the age Of
sighty-three, one of the greatest
benefactors that Lancashire has ever
seen He laid out his money" says
a friend, Sin purchasing chief rents,
which gave him little trouble III collect
ing, and from which no deductions are
allowed He made out the notes or de-
mands for these rents himself, and
would forward them in old envelopes
cut open and turned inside out. He
would use up old ledgers and make ont
his rent-notes on the parts of paper left
blank rather than expend fsrthing
on new paper. His shabby attire, ac-
companied by an old-fashioned ging-
ham umbrella with horn handle,
familiar as it was to the old inhab-
itants as he trudged down Shudehill
market on a Saturday morning, bag
Cling. with huckster as he made his
weekly purchases, WHICH he carried
home tied up in a printed cotton hand
kerchief familiarly known as break
faster, might not have attracted much
notice from stranger, who would be
surprised to hear that he was passing
by one Of the richest men of Manches-
ter, and not only one of the richest,
but one of the most benevolent; for
this strangely-constituted mortal, so
saving of candle-ends, would of his own
free will place bank-note in an old
envelope and leave it at the house OF
some necessitous person and not even
wait for an acknowledgment
The two charities iii which he was
most interested were the Manchester
Infrmary and the funds for the widows
and orphans of the clergy of the do
ceses of Chester and Manchester To-
ward the one he gave in all el5, ZOO,
toward the other $1,000; but the way
he did so was extraordinary and cha
racteristic. One day, when he was in
his eighty-second year, he called at the
Office of the treasurer OF the intirmary,
and on finding that officer out he took
up scrap of paper lying ON the desk,
and, standing by it, wrote: oh. Nichols
will be obliged if Mr.. Shelmerdine will
be at II. Ms Office tomorrow friday
morning by 10 o'clock, on urgent bust
ness" AT the time appointed the treasu-
rer found the old gentleman sittingin his
Office without fire, with his oyercoat
on for warmth. He excused himself
for not having fire on such an in
clement morning, alleging that he was
shortly going out, and that his business

LOUISVILLE, February 1.-The lines
of the Brush Electric-Light Company
during heavy rain last night became
crossed with those of the fire-alarm sys-
tenn of this city, and almost every box
on Main street was burned out. In
consequence the main business portion
of the city is left temporarily unpro-
tected. Had it not been for the pre-
sence of mind and quick work of the
chief operator in the signalling tower,
the damage, which is estimated at
$1,000, wonld have been much greater.
When the flames which darted from the
switchboard discovered to him the
cause, he hastily threw large ledger in
the room upon the switchboard, and,
standing upon it, cut off the loops in
time to save the remaining portion OF
the system.

INDIANAPOLIS. February 1.-The
Senate at u o'clock proceeded to the
hall of the House and the sixteenth
ballot for United States Senator was
begun. The roll-call of the Senate de-
veloped nothing, and the call for tue
House proceeded without interruption
until the name Of Robinson Labor
member with Democratic proclivities)
was reached, when that gentleman rose
and made statement of an agreement
entered into by himself and Gates,
Glover, and Mackey to secure the elee-
ton of Allen. He added that he was
now convinced that it was hopeless to
endeavor to elect as senator any man
not member of one of the two great
parties. and as his constituents were
urgent in their demands, he bad decided
to cast his ballot for David Turpie.
This announcement was greeted with
wild ard enthusiastic cheers from the
Democrats.
Gates. Glover, and Mackey, Repub-
lican Labor members. then made brief
explanations and cast their ballots for
Harrison. the vote standing: Turpie, IS !;
Harrison, "a. In the Senate Turpie
received 32 and Harrison 1S; in the
House Turpie A and Harrison 56.
Immediately on the termination OF
the call of the House-ron Speaker
Sayre announced that there was no
election, and passed the figures to Presl-
dent Smith, of the Senate, whose prlvl-
lege it is, under agreement, to an
nounce the total vote, and he at once
called out that David Turpie had been
elected senator of the United States to
serve six years from the 4th of March
next. Speaker Sayre declared Presi-
dent Smith was a usurper, and had no
right to make such announcement as
president of the joint convention; but
the Speakers remarks were unheeded,
and the announcement made as above.
All protests against the votes of mem
beers as recorded on the DAY the joint
balloting begun, under the compromise
agreement, apply to the ballot taken
to-day-the sixteenth and last OF the
series.
After the announcement of the vote,
Gardiner Republican, moved that the
Join convention adjourn until noon to
morrow. Speaker Sayre put the mo
ton. and declared it carried. Wha
further action, if any, in the interes
of Senator Harrison will he taken by
the Republicans has not yet been made
| known.
1t is understood, although not an
thoritatively announced, that the Re
publican members will hold joint con
vention tomorrow and cast their bal
lots for Harrison, thus making up
formal case for presentation to tn
United States Senate.
